1€ is 1.95lv. (levs), so 25€ should be 48.75lv. Average Bulgarian salary - 250lv. Average price of a new game in game shops in BG - 77lv. Hmm... I guess ordering it from abroad would be cheaper then...

but remember that 1€ or 1$ hasn't all over the world the same value!
normally distributors adjust the prices to the local market depending on the buying power

Wow levs are so strong to euro hm, so the average bulgarien salary is about 180 Euro/month?
What is then the minimum?

In Slovakia: 1 Euro = about 39 Slovakian Crowns,
the average salary is about 12 000 - 14 000 Crowns = cca 300 Euro, but I know people which received about 6 000 crowns or less (150 Euro) and on the other side 40 000 crown or 100 000 crows in month. :eek:

new game cost about 1000 - 2000 crowns.

ach jaj, poor middle and east europe

1€=83din (dinars) and growing.

games cost 3000-4000din, which is 1/4-1/3 average salary :nono:

Yeah, and minimum wage here is 150lv. And because the lev is tied to the Euro (it can't fluctuate) 150lv. are always ~77€. So if you receive a minimum wage (like many people in the countryside) one new game would be half of your salary. Not to mention that the whole salary would hardly be enough to cover all the bills (in some cases our prices are much higher than the German ones, for example; like phone and electricity, afaik), food etc. No wonder why around 95% (IMO) of the Bulgarians use pirate software! There is even a joke here - a Bulgarian's average monthly income is 250lv. and average monthly expense - 300lv. It's a miracle we still exist! :wink:

oh sh*t :eek:

here
1€=about 30czk(crowns)
average month salary is about 15000 czk(500€)
I bought KoH for 1500 so less than 1/10 of average salary(still too much IMO), games cost from 400 to 2000 here so up to 1/8

Now I see what you mean by confusing. My keyboard doesn't even have some of the monetary symbols you're talking about. In Canada the game sells for around $50 (33 euros). My monthy salary is $5000 so 1/100 of my salary.
